“Home Land” | Curator Vonne Patiag

Home Land is a month-long gathering inviting CALD artists and community to create a space for discussion, celebration and reflection on their diasporic culture and relationship to Western Sydney. Homeland is the first of three Long Table seasons produced by Q Theatre.

Vonne Patiag is a Writer, Director, Producer and Actor based in Western Sydney – a creative polymath by necessity. His most recent short film Tomgirl, an exploration of LGBT+ and Filipino Bakla culture in Blacktown, was commissioned through the Generator: Emerging Filmmaker’s Fund 2017 through Create NSW and SBS, premiering on SBS On Demand in February 2018. He was also a recipient of the Hot Shots Plus 2017 Funding Round from Screen Australia for his online series Boy (Space) Friends for production and talent development funding, focusing on issues of masculinity, racism and queer identity in Western Sydney.

Penrith Performing & Visual Arts acknowledges the unique status of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the original owners and custodians of lands and waters, including the land and waters of Western Sydney.
